Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 4859887, member: 1969"] Trouba is a hard one though. One angle looks like he tried to kill the guy and deserved 25+ games and its ridiculous that he didn't get penalized. The other angle where you see them battling, you see Frederic holding his stick in a battle, Trouba yanking it away off balance, and the aftermath is arguably the basic physics of the post tangle up. It's a tough call - I would not want to be the NHL on this one. Because there is a decent possibility of both scenarios. That being said if you are going to argue that it was just the physics, come out and say it and don't penalize him at all. Or if you are going to penalize him, make it more than $5,000. The $5,000 fine is the worst penalty optically. [/QUOTE]
